This depends on the type of business and whether or not their are women actually working in the business. If they are, then yes, having female representation on boards is important.
@9F9G9LW1yr1Y
If they are qualified to be there of course - same for men
@9F4PYW31yr1Y
No, nor should men be required on board of directors of businesses made by women. How you run your business should be your choice alone.
@9DVBLND 1yr1Y
Govt should incentivise and encourage diversity but I don’t support mandates
@9DGG5K51yr1Y
No I feel this undermines women and fuels the equality issue.
@9GRDB221yr1Y
No, but businesses should strongly consider it, and it would limit my desire to invest if an organization did not.
@9G4PNS5 1yr1Y
Yes women in charge because men’s thinking is irrational & usually due to their fragile ego’s not what is actually logical. We need women’s input to make it logical instead of what man’s egos might get upset.
@9G28S7D1yr1Y
If the board is ultimately male and has been historically male dominated it may be a requirement yes.
